It's been one of the most competitive NFL seasons in years, and we're less than an hour away from the ultimate Chiefs vs. Eagles showdown. We've compiled absolutely everything you need to know about where to watch the Super Bowl live stream today, including free global viewing options.
The Kansas City Chiefs are looking for their third consecutive Super Bowl title (and fifth overall). The Philadelphia Eagles are vying for just their second-ever Super Bowl win. After losing out to the Chiefs by just three points in the 2023 Super Bowl, tonight could be all about redemption for the Birds.
Both teams have had stellar seasons. The Chiefs led the AFC with a 15-2 regular season record, while the Eagles ranked second in the NFC at 14-3. Needless to say, it's shaping up to be a can't-miss, star-studded evening (we've spotted Taylor Swift already).
Whether you're rooting for the Chiefs to three-peat or hoping to see the Eagles fly to another championship title, we've got you covered when it comes to tuning in to Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans. Keep reading to learn when the game starts, who's performing, and how to watch free from anywhere.
What channel is the Super Bowl on?
The Super Bowl airs on FOX in the US, ITV1 in the UK, and 7Mate in Australia. Coverage is fairly widespread around the globe, so you should check your local TV listings for more information. There's tons of pre-game coverage available throughout the day, but kickoff is officially scheduled for Sunday at 6:30 p.m. ET / 11:30 p.m. GMT / 7:30 a.m. AWST.
Where to watch the Super Bowl for free
The Super Bowl is available for free in several countries, including the US, UK, and Australia, among others. In the US, the Super Bowl will live stream on Tubi. In the UK, the game will live stream on ITVX. In Australia, the event is on 7Plus. All these options only require free account creation to use.
Tubi coverage is already underway with lots of pre-game chat and predictions. It seems to be running smoothly so far, and we're happy to see 4K quality has indeed turned up for free and we have it running at a silky smooth 60fps too.
How to watch the Super Bowl from anywhere
If you're away from any of these locations at game time, you can still keep up with your free streaming options by using a VPN. Short for virtual private networks, VPNs are handy cybersecurity tools that enable people to alter the virtual location of their electronic devices so that they can access their usual websites and apps from anywhere. They're especially popular among those looking to use their go-to apps while traveling and give their online security a boost.
If you're unsure where to start regarding VPNs, ExpressVPN is one of the best. It's easy to use, has tons of global servers, and has a 30-day money-back guarantee. Our official ExpressVPN review has the full breakdown.
How to watch the Super Bowl with a VPN
- Sign up for a VPN if you don't have one.
- Install it on the device you're using to watch.
- Turn it on and set it to the location of your streaming service.

Where to watch the Super Bowl in the US
In addition to the free Tubi option, the Super Bowl is available to live stream via FOX through several live TV streaming services in the US. These are great options if you want to watch FOX year-round or hope for a more comprehensive service with other popular channels. Sling TV, DirecTV Stream, and Fubo are three of the best sports streaming services out there, thanks in no small part to their month-to-month options. You can watch the game in 4K with all three services (although you'll need to upgrade with Fubo).
After Tubi, Sling is the cheapest of the bunch and one of the cheapest live TV streaming packages. Subscriptions start at $46/month, but new users can get their first month for half-off, making it just $23 today. You'll need to opt for the Sling Blue plan to access FOX, although local channel availability is regional, so you should check to make sure the network is available in your area before subscribing. Sling Blue also carries the NFL Network, FS1, and 40+ other live channels.
DirecTV Stream is the best cable alternative we've tested in our guide to the best live TV streaming services. Subscriptions start at $87/month for the base Entertainment tier, which carries FOX and 90+ other live channels. This plan has pretty much everything you'd find in a standard cable plan, but Super Bowl fans can also try DirecTV Stream's new, cheaper MySports plan. The service offers 25+ live sports-centric channels. All DirecTV Stream plans include a five-day free trial.
Fubo is one of the most popular sports-centric live TV streaming services. The base Essential plan includes 150+ live channels, including FOX, for $85/month. You'll need to upgrade to Fubo Elite for $95/month to unlock 4K streaming. New users can get up to $25 off their first month of service and a seven-day free trial.
Where to watch the Super Bowl in the UK
As mentioned above, viewers can watch the Super Bowl for free through ITV1 and ITVX in the UK. Thanks to VPNs, this is a very popular option each year, even outside the UK.

Where to watch the Super Bowl in Australia
Australia is also one of the lucky regions with a free Super Bowl option in the form of 7Mate. Fans can live stream the game through 7Plus. The Super Bowl is also available through Australia's DAZN NFL Game Pass.
Where to watch the Super Bowl in Canada
Canada has several different options for watching the Super Bowl. Viewers can catch the game through CTV or TSN with a cable login. If they want to live stream the game, they can subscribe to TSN Plus for $8/month or DAZN for $24.99/month.
How to watch the Super Bowl everywhere else
DAZN's NFL Game Pass hosts the Super Bowl in pretty much every region outside the United States and China. Prices vary from country to country, but many places have a reduced rate right now, allowing you to live stream the game cheaply. DAZN has typically shown the full American ads and halftime show broadcast with the game.
Who is singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl?
Jon Batiste will sing the national anthem at Super Bowl LIX. The Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter, and composer is perhaps best known for his album "We Are," which won the coveted Album of the Year award at the Grammys in 2022. Batiste also co-composed the score to the 2020 Pixar film "Soul," for which he also won an Academy Award. Additionally, Batiste was the bandleader on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert for several years.
Who is performing at the Super Bowl halftime show?
Kendrick Lamar will star in the Super Bowl LIX halftime show. The rapper is fresh off Record of the Year and Song of the Year wins at the 2025 Grammys for his song "Not Like Us." The awards brought his career Grammys total to a whopping 22. SZA will join the show as a special guest.
Where is the next Super Bowl?
If you're already wondering about next year's Super Bowl, you're not alone. In fact, the next three Super Bowl locations have already been decided by the NFL. 2026's Super Bowl LX will be held at Levi's Stadium, the home of the San Francisco 49ers, in Santa Clara, CA. Then, in 2027, Super Bowl LXI will be held at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, CA. Then event heads back east in 2028 for Super Bowl LXII at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, GA.
